We are in the process of going through all of the material gathered in the conversations, materials such as slides, videos, and the graphic recording, as well as the chatbox comments, and the Menti polls to draw out themes and next steps. 

We continue to strive towards ensuring that childhood disability poverty is eradicated in our beautiful country!
